GI Joe and Paranormal Activity Get New Official Release Dates from Paramount

Paramount Pictures has released the new official release dates for two highly anticipated films, Danny McBride's G.I. Joe reboot and Paranormal Activity 8. Unfortunately for fans, both movies have been pushed back. G.I. Joe, featuring Bradley Cooper as Duke, is set to premiere on October 20, 2028, nearly two years after its initial date.

The horror series, Paranormal Activity 8, will be released on October 22, 2028, five months later than originally planned. Danny McBride, known for his comedic roles, will make his feature-film directorial debut with G.I. Joe, collaborating with writers John Carcieri and Jeff Fradley. While casting for both films is still underway, McBride has expressed excitement for the suspenseful action flick set in a Cobra-run small town.

Meanwhile, Paranormal Activity's new release date brings fans the chance to return to Katie and Micah's house nearly two decades later, directed by Ian Tuason and with contributions from original director Oren Peli, James Wan, and Jason Blum.
